Mr. Clay made a Speech in this City, in the
Spring of 1844, in which he set forth a declaration
of what he held to be Whig principles. On the
Slavery question, his creed was distinctly declared :

over the institution or slavery.

The "Frankfort Commonwealth" relates an inci-
&tUi that must have been beautiful and interesting
to an extreme.- That paper says that a few minutes
before Capt. Cox's Company of Fleming County (Ky.)
Volunteers took up the line of march from Flemings-
burg to Maysville, they were drawn np in line, to
receive the farewell of their friends. While stand-
ins; in line, they were approached by a company of
ypung ladies dressed in white, each wearing a beau
tiful Jtosato on the left shoulder. The ladies, led
by a venerable matron of the Town, passed along
the line, aad, taking from their own ehoulders their
beautiful badges, placed them on the shoulders of
the brave volunteers. It is described as beinz one
of the most interesting scenes ever witaessed. The
Mexicans had better not come in conflict with these
brave boys. Not one of them will ever lose his Ro
tettt but with his life. Whwtver the one falls, there
will the other go out !
I 07 The adroitness with which the people of the
United States were cheated into the annexation of
1 eras, by the cry of English interference, is con
fessed by the Galveston Civilian," as indeed it had
previously been by Gen. Hottstoai. The Civilian,
commenting upon an article in a. New York paper,
says: "Gen. Houston has uever aneeringly or oth
erwise, avowed that Texas has played' the United
States, a scaly triek" as the Advertiser classically
phrases U. He has said, as every body in Texas,
and not a few persona out of it, know, that the cla
mor about Texas selling herself to England, was
without foaatationw dtlksion of the. politicians o
the United States, whielyit Was not then the policy
of Texas to dissipate.'

it is, only because they hare the good taste to con

excuse for making the publication, would not justi
fy us in copying."

ter way of conducting a controversy, than that of

VERA CRUZ.
It is said that the Guerrillas in the vicinity of
Vera Cruz, are taking measures to distress the in

cannot be too often brought to public notice, as a

ginia still further to control our trade, without ef
fectual counteracting steps on our own part. Will
the people of North Carolina rsxMir their Legislai

by those who will but the more despise us for the
imbecility which allows them to wrest from us our
birth-right ? If there is a spark of patriotism alive

Departed this lifes on the taorntnef ojf
October, Col" Jams Aw.n, of - WinOsor, Bertie
County. Ha -was thirty-seven years old, when ho
died. Having lost his wife in .March last heleates
behind him three orphan children,' too young to re
alise their bereavement To his numerous relatives
and friends, his loss is an event ftilT of sadness and
grief. Indeed, the premature death of such a maa
as James Allen, cannot fail to inspire every bosons
with gloom, wherever he was known y.
Col. Allen graduated at West Point swmo iUfee
years ago, with great disiinctionin.tmosf -the most
distinguished Classes of that Institution He wa
i-etained as Tutor of Mathematics, with the prospers
of shortly ebtainingaProfessowbiBwTl
ho had just reached the irge of, twenty-one Tears.'-
He, however, left West Point ia a few months, awl
accepted a Commission in the Army. ',' He was one
of the highest Officers in command of th force star
tloned by Gen. Jackson near Charleston, during tiis
days of Nullification. 5 ' .
He left the Army some time in the 'year 1835, ati5
EsT stoo3fat the heaoof nis ?roftssion.'"ls-eo J
ued an extensive and lucrative practice until his death.
Such is a short sketch of the leading events ef his
life ; but these cold statements can give not idea of;
the character of the man whose death has spread sues
melancholy and mournful feelings in the community
where he lived. I 'knew him welL No man ever
saw him and forgot hira. In intellect his equals
have been few in any age or country. Whether in
conversation, or in public speaking, he seemed nn
conscions of superior ability. But be was acknowl-',
edged by all to be pre-eminently ran extraordinary
rasa. When we add to this, that he-was the soul of
honor, of bravery, and generotaty-that where hie
friends were concerned, he forget himself in short,
that he contributed much more to the happineea oT
others, than was offered hhn in return; we feel that
as his place cannot be filled in life? so it cannot in '
the hearts of his friends. He is Quietly sleepisz na-
der the cold earth, but his silent grave will often be
moistened by the tears of those who admired an4
loved him as a brother in life. W.
